Warner – Philippe Jaroussky to release double album of songs with poetry by Verlaine

2015-01-15, Warner Classics

“Jaroussky, speaking of a Verlaine setting by Reynaldo Hahn, has said that the poet ‘conveys a feeling of both moonlit abstraction and of the allusive, but very sensual caress of the beloved. There is always a sensual element in Verlaine’s writing.'”…

Opera News – 21st Century High – Philippe Jaroussky, France’s Superstar Countertenor

2014-05,  Opera News, by Sylvia L’Écuyer

ON: Do you initiate these projects, such as the Handel operas, or are they proposed to you?

PJ: Both. I have reached a point where I can initiate an opera project in order to sing a particular role. However, I have to accept that I will likely never perform the role of my dreams, Handel’s Ariodante. Singing “Dopo notte” after “Scherza infida” is more than I can manage onstage. I did include these in a Farinelli recital program in February for a U.S. tour, but Ariodante will remain a major disappointment in my life.

I have also just realized that I like to work with the same people over and over again, and I believe I have reached a certain balance in my artistic life because of this. It is always reassuring to know the person you are working with.
